The pre~school was established
in 1974, when
·
a group of un-
dergraduate students began , to
offer child care services under the
direction of Dr. Midge Schratz,
professor of psychology, ac-
cording to Podzius.
According to Podzius, the
students who
·
work in the pre-
s
chool have been working on the
licensing p
r
oposal for a long time.
"The anticipation throughout the
process of evaluation was worth
it," he said
.
.
Podzius said· that the program
strives for the highest quality.
"The license indicated that .we
meet state regulations
·
and serves
as an index of quality,'' he said.
"On a campus in which
·
an of
.
us are involved with social service
concerns, the center provides
humanizing character for the
campus," said Podzius. "As the
pre-school develops we can
become
.
specialized in various
fields of study,

and become in-
volved with stress management
and other
·
important research
topics of today."
Podzius said he
.
estimates that
the relocation of the school will
last about two weeks from the
time the building permit is issued
until the end o
·
r the semester.
The pre-school is currently
opened from 8 a
.
m. to
5 p.m. and
operates on a semester basis.
"We look forward to a center
that is growing
-
and hope to get a
·
permaneni location on campus,"
said Podzius.

1983
Faculty
and
·
their hangups
by Luane Remsburger
Talking owls, students being
shot for apathy, dogs competing
with the litrary genius of Leo
Tolstoy -
·
a scene from some far
out world, your ask?
No, just a few examples of
faculty doors found hanging
around Marist.
Whether in
the
form
of
newspaper
clippings,
posters,
buttons or stickers, faculty door-
art will do anything but bore you.
But what's in
a
door? Ac-
cording to Jennifer Langner;
faculty
secretary
for
.
the
Humanities
.
Division, her door
arid office are a reflection of
herse!L Upon reaching her office,
one is greeted by a poster of an
owl
saying,
"Never mind
whooooo, just tell me when."
"We're always
under an
avalanche of work here," she said
when asked about its meaning.
"The work load is so incredible
that it doesn't matter wlio wants
what, just tell me when!"
Work isn't the only thing
Langner's office is loaded with. A
45 foot plastic rainbow colored
·
dragon covers her ceiling and
towers over jars filled

with
seashells, a giant plant in the
corner, and walls covered with
everything from a Miss
·
Piggy
poster to a black octopus.
"I asked my boss if it was all
·
.
right if I brought a 45 foot dragon
into work," she said. "He said it
was okay as long as it didn't eat
too much and it stayed in my
office
.
"
Amid all this is a
·
sign which
reads, "This place would die
without me."
When looking at the ifoor
·
of
faculty member David Mccraw,
it appears a group of students
might be doing some dying
themselves. The feature attraction
here is a newspaper clipping from
the Kingston Freeman showing
students about to be shot for their
apathy. Some might consider this
door-gore, but McCraw says it
actually sums up the frustration
of many professors -
and
students.
"I have gotten more comments
on that than anything else in my
whole life," he said, referring to
the picture, "which says a lot
about my life! I do
not
have a
trivial door."
·
Maurice Bibeau, assistant
·
professor
of Spanish and the
other foreign language instructors
have an open and shut case when
it comes to being leaders in door
art. Bibeau has a sticker that says •
"Sonrie---es contagiaso" (smile
-
it's contagious) One can find
anything from
the Russian
alphabet outside Dr
.
Casimir
Norkeliunas' office to the
Spanish version of "I like iny
job ... what.I hate is the work!" on
Irma Casey's door.
Casey, however, didn't stop
.
with her door. Her entire
·
office is
like a slice of Spanish life. One
section has been conv
_
erted into a
mini grocery store. The "store"
features everyday products, each·
packaged and labeled in Spanish.
Casey said that actually seeing the
products like this helps her
students to a better understanding
of Spanish.
·
"I believe the more senses that
you use, the better the learning,"
she said. "All the senses are
involved .with
learning -
touching, feeling, tasting."
It's a good thing doors aren't
always open or all this art might
go unnoticed.
Blondes may
supposedly have more fun, and
we may be what we eat, but the
next time you really want to find
out more about a faculty person's
core, simply look at his door.

Marist'S movie man s3.ys it
by Eileen Hayes
.
"What's Gene
showing·
tonight?:' was the most popular
topic of conversation during the
month_ of March.
From his studio-like room in
Champagnat; sophomore Gene
.
Robbins played his tapes on his
video recorder for all interested
viewers.
According to Robbins,
he
hooked up the video to the whole
ca1T1pus as a publicity stunt to
prove to students and ad-
ministrators that · Marist could
have a student-run television
station.
Robbins attached a channel
splitter -
a device used to create
an additional channel -
to Bruce
·
Cable TV's equipment on the roof
of Chainpagnat hoping it would
·
eventually be found, he said
.
Marist security discovered it,
notified
Bruce
Cable
and
unhooked it on March 31.
The innovative efforts
·.
of
Robbins were not appreciated by
the owners of the equipment.
Ralph Teller of Bruce Cable
TV,
said the cable system was van-
dalized by the· person who in-
stalled the channel splitter:
.
He
said a service man had to reallign
the equipment after
-
the channel
splitter was removed. The school
will have to pay for the damages
and repairs.
_
Teller mentioned the legality of

murder case
by
Jim Leonard
A Suffolk County
.
Court jury in
Long Island has found three New
York City men guilty of second-
degree· murder in the March 20,
1982, shooting of Marist student
Richard Berger, 19, during a
holdup at a Hauppauge gasoline
station.
,
Berger was killed during the
1982 spring break while he was
visiting his friend who worked as
a night attendant at

gas station. Berger, a sophomore,
was a Marist College honor
student who majored in computer
science.
A.
shocking accusation by the
defense lawyers for
.
the three
assailants received attention in
this year's April
5
edition of The
Star, a grocery store tabloid. The
defense claimed Berger died from
the withdrawal of the life-support
systems rather than from the
bullet.' Juror Thomas Fitzgerald
of Shirley was quoted in
Newsday, saying, "We got rid of
that one (the defense's claim)
right away."
Berger was shot in the head
with a bullet from a .22-caliber
revolver while
·
attempting to
thwart a holdup at the service
station.
After
the
shooting,
Berger was taken to Smithtown
General Hospital where he was
unable to breathe without a
_
respirator. Six days later, after
doctors agreed he was "brain
dead," his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Gerald Berger, decided to remove
the life-support systems and
donate their son's kjdneys to two
young men.
The three defendants

moved out into the street.
A crowd of about "30 people
were milling around" when Lt.

asked the crowd to disperse and
all but six people left the area.
The six subjects refused

· Police arrested Ray Castaro,

Ero! Gureli, Michael Buckley,

At a court appearance on April

dismissal until October 6, 1983,
according to City Court records.
Castaro, however, was also
made to pay restitution and

As the year draws to a close and we all

look ahead to next year. The Interactive
Change members which won last week's
elections face the challenge of representing
the student body next year. They have
promised greater cornmunicatjon between .
students and ad,ministrators during the next
. year, and It is their responsibility to achieve
that goal. It is the responsibility of the
student body which voted them into office
to keep them to that promise.
What's more, internships allow
undergraduates to make .. im-
portant connections that may lead
to jobs after they are graduated
from college.
A
personal ex-
perience exemplifies · this. An
editor at

arranging an interview with the

. currently with General Class
Skipping.
There
are
no
requirements and. irresponsibility
is stressed.
Hard Drugs for the Liberal
Arts Major: This course will deal
with the problem of drugs on the
college campus. As a semester
long project each student will be
required to submit a proposal
to
have more drugs distributed on
campus.
As
the
semester
progresses students will be en-
couraged to experiment with
various forms of hallucinogetic
drugs. The final will consist of
snorting a tuition's worth of
cocaine.
Required
materials
include: A mirror, razor blade,
vengeance towards the leader of
the Caucasians (Penn).
They both end up in the same
correctional center, and, without
giving away
too
much of the
story, you know there will be a
final confrontation between the
two.
The movie offers some above-
standard performances by Penn
(in a different role from that in
Fast
Times), Esai Morales (in the
role of the Hispanic leader) and
bong and two Doors albums.
Managerial
and
Sexual
Behavior: In this course the
wonders of sexuality in
the
business world will be explored.
Topics such as, How
to
become
sexually agrcssivc with
your
superiors and Making it with the
vice president of finance will be
explored. Beer . Drinking with
Management Applications is a
prerequisite.
Mass Confusion: This course is
an introductory exercise on the
impossibility of finding a job as a
Confusion Ans Major. Press
Freedom and Radio Broadcasting
will also be covered.
Intermediate French Kissing
I:
Explore the wonders of swapping
spit in a classroom athmosphere.
This course should be taken con-
currently with
the · Physical
Education Course
in
Tonsil
Hockey.
Now I just have to figure out
which courses are Liberal Arts
courses and which aren't.
by Reni Santoni (as one of the
more predominant correctional
officers). Trivia fans
may
remeber Santoni as Clint East-
wood's partner in Dirty Harry.
Although the movie is very
fast-paced at times, there arc a
number of segments along the
way that could have been deleted.
It seems like we take a lot longer
to reach the final climax then we
need to. Even so, there are worse
things you could waste two hours
on.

Jim Raimo
·
to leave
by
Kris Lawas
The reign of Jim Raimo as the
residen( director of both Leo and
Sheahan l-Iall will come to an end
this June after many years of
service to the Marist community
.
Raimo's decision to resign as
resident director came about after
his parents, Jim and Kitty Raimo,
purchased ·"Mr. Sausage," a
small family restaurant in Hyde
Park, this past October. Raimo,
in an agreement with his parents,
·
will
be joining the new business to
·
work full time at the end of this
academic year
.
Raimo graduated from Marist
College in 1981 with a Bachelor of
Arts Degree in Political Science.
During his college years he
became active in the residence
staff. In 1979-80, he was the
resident coordinator of Benoit
House and in 1980-81 he became
the assistant resident director of
the freshmen dorms. After his
graduation, Raimo applied for
the freshmen resident director
position and won the spot.
"I became interested in the
position mainly because of what
the position could give me," said
Raimo. "I knew many of the
resident directors back then and
they really liked their jobs. As an
assistant resident director, I really
.
enjoyed
it.
.
It
was really
something to see a group of
people working together. It gave
me a sense of accomplishment.
That's a major reason why I
decided to
try
the position.,,

"I don't" feel that they have a

made mistakes. I had to learn
certain skills. I had to learn to be
flexible. At times my lack

got in the way. This year, I have a

Raimo said that he feels Maris~
has greatly improved ov~r the
years.
"Marist now attracts students
who really want and are interested
.
in learning ~ot. only a career but
themselves. The school
.
has
greatly improved for the students
in a social aspect by allowing
more student events.''
Whether or not Raimo's
resignation will be permanent on
his part is uncertain.
"Someday I'd like to come
back, depending on how things
work out," said Raimo. "My
~ays here have been very
rewarding. I'll never forget the
people I've worked with and the
good times we've had. They've
been
the best."

The newly-elected president of
the
:
Student Academic Com~
mittee, . Margaret Freund, said
this
week
·
that
·
the biggest
challenge she will face in her
1983-84 term of office will be
making the S.A.C. known to
Marist students.
Freund, a junior, who was an

s.A.C. member this academic

year
.
and also on the Financial
Board as a representative of the
S.A.C. does not allow the
committee to represent the
student body adequately. "The
.
S.A.C. was formed as a· liaison
.
between students and faculty, to
keep the lines of communication
. open," he said. "We can't do that
·
if the students don't know we
exist."
Besides
taking · legitimate
·.
complaints and problems con-
cerning professors and students to
the department chairpersons, the
.
committee
·
also helps students
. contact hard to reach adjunct
'
professors and set up meetings
with them, according to Freund.
·
·
The S.A.C

has helped to initiate
new courses of study, such as the
Irish Studies program, and is

· Dawn Joy Oliver, the

current
S.A.C. president, agrees with
Freund that students need to be
informed ·or
.
the committee's
existence. •:The S.A,C
.
is an
academic organization, nor a
social one,
,
this is written
.
in the
S.A.C. constitution. Because of
this we don't sponsor mixers and
other activities and don'i get the
publicity we need," she said.
Oliver said that the new
president should widely publicize
the· committee to make it known.
"We
·
can be of great use to the
students once they know to come
to us with their problems," she
said. "Last semester we took
three students' grievances
·
about
professors
to
the
proper
department chairpersons and
have heard that things are much
improved in those situations. The
administration has been very
cooperative."
Freund won the race for
president of S

A.C. after a tie
vote and a subsequent run-off
election. Don

Eustace, Freund's
opponent, will be the S.A.C. vice-
president this year. "We had

new projects
by Mike Hayden
Newly elected College Union
Board President Jim Barnes has
big plans for next semester.
According to Barnes, next
semester's plans include com-
puterization of
.
all · C.U.B.
financial
records,
programs
involving a Marist television
network, formation of
a
public
opinion organization and the
possibility of holding a major
concert
.
.
"One major goal for next
semester will be to computerize
the organization," said Barnes.
·
"the computer society
is
already
proposing Jo help
.
all the clubs
organize and get
their in-
formation down on computers."
The C.U.B.
is
a student
organization that is res
.
ponsible
for sponsoring and expanding
social and educational programs
·
for students at Marist College.
The organization consists of four
elected officers and seven ap-
.
·
pointed chairmen.
_
·
''.I am .very eager to get as many
people
·
involved
·
as·
f
can," said
Barnes, in regard to appointing
C.U
.
B
.
chairmen
.
·
There
have
been
many
suggestions for new programs
next semester including
.
ex-
perimentation with a Marist
television network. "We cannot
promise results without support,
so if students are interested they
should consider applying," said
Barnes.
The television network could
conceivably be hooked up with
the existing cable connections in

be shown as well as
c

"A concert committee will also
be appointed in the hope of
getting a major concert
s
pon-
s
ored,"
s
aid Barne
s
. "A nmccrr
at Marist has alwav!> been a
consideration
but· due

technicalities a concert has vet

be approved," said Barnes. ·
Another
program · belll!!
considered for the CSL next vear
is a public opinion organizat.ion.
"I feel it would be a good idea
to
have th
e
CSL print a forum which
would help the administration
and students communicate more
effectively.
The organization
would be permanently set up to
handle questionnaires and ideas
brought about by student
s
."
Barnes said.
The remaining
.
three elected
positions to C.U.B. have not been
determined at this point. Ber-
nadette Cosner,
the current
C.U.8. president, said that these
positions would be internally
filled by herself, Barnes and Betty
Yeaglin, coordinator of college
activities. "The C.U.B
.
is
i
n the
process of requmng future
ca1'didates of elected positions to
have at least one year of ex-
perience in the C.U.B. This i
s
because of the enormous amount
of work to do, you need some
kind of experience," said Cosner.

Maher, dean of adult
education, said, "Project Second
Chance is a course designed for
women entering the 'job market
for the first time, planning to
enter college, undecided about
careers, or unsure of how to
combine a family, school and a
career."
Project Second Chance was
first introduced to Marist in 1981
~nd achieved acceptanci
a
s1
wei
L
·
as approval from both the new
students and the
;
administration.
According
to
Maher, a program
like this was needed at the college.
"Many
women
are
·
ap-
prehensive and are unsure of
themselves when faced with the
task of going to college for the
first time or returning
10
school,"
said Maher.
"It's a big step for a
woman to take. After being in a
kitchen rather than a classroom
for a number of years, they don't
know what to expect."
"What this course does is help
prepare these older women for
college
,
" said Cathleen Alban,
adult
·
education
academic
counselor and instructor of the
course. "The program teaches
these women how
10
write a
resume, how to go about looking
for a job and what
10
expect in the
career world," she said.
"This course has helped me
tremendously,'' said Bellochio.
"I'm a cashier in a Grand Union
and I wanted to do more with my
lid
}
i
.
ha\;; one son and I don't
want
to be the type
·
or woman
who
,
doesn't know what to do
with her
'
life once her children are
on their own
.
"
The women said that they had
noticed many changes in college
since they first started.
"When I was in college
,
it was
extremely strict," said Barbara
Ambrose, a 46-year-old school
teacher. "Socially, we had a lot of
limitations. We had curfew
s
that
would be laughed at today
.
I
think that the way Marist and
colleges like this school are run
give students more freedom to
grow
.
as individuals," she said.
"I never went
to college
before," said Bellochio
.
"1 had
always anticipated it as being
snobbish kids studying 24 hours a
day
.
Now, I get an entirely dif-
ferent picture
.
It's more relaxed
and easy-going
.
"
Although Marist will not help
place these women in jobs, the
course has helped prepare them
10
be able to go out into the job
market with more confidence and
skills.
"These women have a great
chance of succeeding in the career
world
,
" according
·
to Marge
Palmer, coordinator of job
location
and
development.
"Although some people tend to
think that their ages will cause a
disadvantage, it is actually an
asset. Employers will look at
these women as having more
·
experience with life and will in
many instances hire them over
much younger people. Age really
isn't a deciding factor," she said.
Although the course ha
s
already concluded for this year,
Adult Education will be spon-
soring Project Second Chance
again ne
x
t year.
"This course has reall
y
given
me more confidence. Even my
husband notices me as being more
out-going," said Bellochio. "So

what if they have to eat hot dogs
when I

College cautious about River Day
by Jane
M~
~~!lr~hilli
Despite rumors that the ad-
ministration
_
at Marist will try to
prevent River Day, Gerard A.
Cox, dean of student affairs, says
the administration does not have
the power to prohibit' the event,
"Marist does not own the land
at
toe
particular spot where River
Day is held," Cox said. "We are
in an agreement with the city to
monitor that property."
The college is not opposed to
the concept, Cox said, as long as
those who organize it accept the
responsibility.
River Day is an annual event
held one to two weeks before
spring semester finals. Members
of the senior class

:_
''.There have been River Days
in the
.
past when everyone has had
a good time," Cox said. "But,
last year's River Day was a
nightmare."
Injuries and sickness plagued
many students last year when the
rain-filled afternoon was over.
Some students were sick from too
much alcohol, and a few were
abusive co the staff at St. Francis
Hospital, Cox said.
A concern of Cox's is the
consumption of alcohol by those
freshman who are still under the
· 1egal drinking age of 19. The
organizers could be held liable if
an under age student was caught
drinking, Cox said.
Cox sees River Day as being a
test of how much the students
care for one another. He said: "l f
students decide to take part in the
River Day tradition, they should
keep in mind the tradition of the
institution. Caring about the
welfare of their fellow
.
students is
a
concern
of the
Marist
brothers."
Cox said that River Day can go
either way. "The students can be
responsible and have spiri1, or it
can be a disaster," he said.
"Some students that were in-
volved last year urged future
students to never run another
River Day."
A
gate has been put up at the
entrance of the tunnel down to the
river with the city's approval, Cox
said. "The gate was needed to
.
reduce cars coming into that area
because of the work being done
by the McCann Foundation,"
Cox said. The McCann Foun-
dation is currrently working on
Marist's landscape for the entire
waterfront area.
Another concern of the ad-
ministration is the location of
River Day. The closeness of the
tracks and the river worries the
administration, Cox said.
.
The administration tries to
guess when River Day will be, but
administrators are never really
sure, Cox said. "We try to
narrow it down, but tradition has
1he decision being made at
midnight the day before."

The Marist College outdoor
track team placed second out of
five teams in a meet held at Kings
College Saturd~y. ,
Although the team was only
entered in six events on the
program, it managed to place at
least one ·runner in the· top three
. finishers in each.
·
"I was pleased with the way the
races went," · said coach Jim
Klein. "The , way we've been
training is starting to pay off."
Captain Ken Bohan, a.junior,
took third in the 1,500 meter run
with a time of
4:
13, just a second
behind the winner from Hunter
College.
Bohan also
placed
second in the 800 mders close
behind the same runner. from
Hunter. Marist freshman Chris
Morrison finished right behind
Bohan to take third.
Other Marist runners to finish
in the top three were: freshman
Pete· Pazik in the 5,000 meters,
taking second with a time of
16: 11;
senior Ron
Dimmie,
running 23.2 in the
200
meters,
good for second place; and
freshman Don Godwin, finishing
first in the quarter with a time of

Peelor isn't worried about the

races held on the east coast during
the collegiate season. "There is a
good field of teams competing
this year," said Davis of the
twelve teams rowing at the
regatta.
Dayis pointed out the men's
race with the LaSalle team at last
year's President's Cup. LaSalle
defeated Marist by one point,
placing Marist second overall. He
hopes the team does as well at this
year's event.
Because the President's Cup
Regatta is traditionally held on
parents' weekend, Davis expects
a
good spectator turnout pending
nice weather. "It will be a great
event to watch," said Davis.
The regatta will begin at 8 a.m .

depending on water conditions.

Bikers start ride
for foundation
by
John
Bakke
Last Sunday, in a steady rain,
the eight members of the "USA
Team Tour 1983" began their
I 0,000-mile, round-trip, cross-
country bicycle ride from All-
Sport in Poughkeepsie.
The group is making the trip to
promote fitness and to benefit the
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The
CF Foundationn raises money for
research into Cystic Fibrosis, a
genetic disease which attacks
children and is usually fatal.
The cyclists began the eight-
month journey after a breakfast
at All-Sport which benefitted the
CF Foundation. Between the
breakfast and pledges · for the
tour, over $10,000 was raised for
the foundation according to Dick
Quinn, local CF spokesman and
assistant
athletic
director
at
Marist.
County Executive Lucille
Pattison read a letter from
Governor Mario Cuomo to the
bikers at the breakfast and a copy
of a proclamation honoring the
cyclists from the State Legislature
was read and presented.
The eight riders are mostly
local and include former Marist
student Tammy Hajjar, 1982
NCAA
women's racquetball
champion.

The Marist College cr~ss
country team suffered another
setback when its top runner,
sophomore John Lovejoy, an-
. nounced that he will not return to
Marist for the '83-'84 school year.
Lovejoy, a 3.3 student from
Wantagh,
N.Y.,
said that his
financial situation was the main
reason for leaving. He also in-
dicated his disappointment with
the future prospects of Marist
cross country as a reason for his
leaving.
Lovejoy's achievements at
Marist include producing the
third fastest time ever by a Marist
harrier on the five-mile course at
Van Cortland Park in New York.
He was also a first-team all-state
selection by virtue of his sixth-
place finish in the state cham-
pionships this year.
·. Before making his decision . to
· leave Marist, Lovejoy went to
Financial Aid to inquire about a
possible increase in his aid. "l
went to them twice and explained
my situation," said Lovejoy.
· /'Their response was to take out
another loan, which I definitely
· do not want
to
do."
According to Lovejoy, the
recent news of Bob Mayerhofer's
· resignation as head cross country
coach was a major reason for his
decision. "Now, even if they did
offer me money it's doubtful I'd
come.

"because the cross country
program doesn't , appear to· be
